So I guess I have to start us off...
My homeboard is the Clackhouse where I am known as SAMTAYCAI.
Samtaycai came from the first syllable of my three daughters names....Samantha, Taylor and Caitlin. When I started in this fandom, 2 years ago, my identity was pretty much tied up to being a mom. Now, thanks to this fandom I finally found something I enjoyed and I would like to develop into a career, webdesign.
Finding Clay Aiken is only the second site I designed...and thanks to Angela for trusting me with her baby. Now I have a wonderful outlet for my creativity and love of organizing information. I am still new at this so there may be lots of kinks that need to get ironed out. So bear with me as we start this board...hopefully we won't make too many mistakes in running it. Any suggestions and comments are welcome, just PM me or post on the suggestions forum.
On this forum I decided to use Ansamcw as my SN...Ansa is a special nickname I had with my high school and college girlfriends no one else in the family uses it. Being part of this fandom makes me feel like I'm in high school and college again when there was an adventure at every turn and life was full of possibilities...so I decided to take that name on...now I am not just sam, tay, and cai's mom... I'm my own person.
Clay...I saw him first on Group two ..wasn't really impressed...thought Ruben and Kim deserved to go ahead. Then on the wildcard show...I was amazed by his performance. That night I went on the boards and found BOLT...my first home. It wasn't enough...that same night I got the crazy idea to type Clay Aiken on Kazaa and lo and behold there were about 10 songs under his name...the demo songs. I downloaded them and that's when I knew....this was one major talent in the making. I wasn't familiar with the songs...they were not even the genre I preferred, but I downloaded all the original versions and I knew he sang each song better than the original artists...I was hooked. From that moment I was following Clay's career, downloading all the clack, listening to all the cellcert and replacing my soaps and TV with time on the boards.
There is one thing I haven't experienced in this fandom...seeing Clay live. This coming tour, I may get the chance to see him in Toronto, AT LAST ..Thanks for coming to Canada Clay...I just hope I can survive my frst concert experience and not expire from the excitement....
Okay this became a novella...no need to write this much in your intro...that is one thing you will learn about me...I am very wordy *g*.
So I am really looking forward to getting to know all of you! ok...go and post already!
